Ok, time to bounce some ideas off you guys! I have started a thread over on DIY, but I figured I would get some input here.

Seems like my best be is to get a small vehicle with a manual tranny. Use the clutch and tranny with a premade motor adapter, and use a forklift motor. I have asked over at DIY for a link to cheapest adapter available, cause that part alone can be a grand...

No I am guessing that a large DC motor controller is very similar to a brushed motor esc... I am almost thinking that I could make my own mech unit... Maybe I will not get that ambitious, but it must be pretty simple.

Any ideas or thoughts...
